Mom and Grandma's Visit!

A week after Thanksgiving, my mom and grandma came to visit! They stayed with us for a week, and thinking back, I can't believe that we accomplished all we did in such a short amount of time! They were great, adventurous visitors! Here are the highlights from their trip:
  • We walked to the Consulate, and they visited my office and met a lot of my coworkers. It was really fun for me to share my new job with them.
  • Decorating our Christmas tree!
  • Markets in downtown Frankfurt - it was fun to show them our new home!
  • Singing Christmas Tree Concert - performed by an international choir - it was beautiful and a great way to get in the holiday spirit!
  • Visit to Heidelberg - girls' day in a quintessential German town
  • Trip to Nuremberg, one of the most famous Christmas Markets in Germany!
Lots of gluhwein!

I think this picture is funny because Brian is so much taller than mom and grandma!

We ate a lot of lebkuchen in Nuremberg!


  • Brian taking over my Grandma's wheelchair and going up and down U-bahn escalators. He was cracking us UP!

hahahaha - we couldn't stop laughing at this - it's blurry because i was shaking from laughing so hard
